Thanks Punk! glad somebody knows. i read an article by Stephen fry the other day who suffers terrible bouts of depression and he told how he very recently tried to commit suicide with pills and vodka, done that one myself. when it takes hold of you, it takes hold of you he quite rightly said you can be so alone in a crowd of people and that is so true.

Yes, the thing is that it seems you can't get out of it when it happens but it's quite the opposite. You just need help when it happens and it may be hard to ask for it but it's definitely worth it.

Been there, Wolfie (cough cough last year cough cough). Feel free to talk to me anytime you want.

I, was super pissed just now because my Comcast On Demand stopped working and they needed to resent a signal and I had to wait an hour. I was in the middle of The Last Exorcism Part 2, but I have resumed it now so am back to being happy!

Re: How Are Your Emotions Today.......Thread !!!!!!!

i didn't say i was depressed now folks i was just answering tripod and mentioning the article that Stephen Fry was talking about, although i'm not exactly happy but that's these days the norm for me and mostly my fault anyway, without going into details, but thanks for your concern. Pam i know you are, because you helped me through a bad time a while ago if you remember although i didn't return the favour when you went through one unfortunatly but i know i love you for what you did to help me xxx

Re: How Are Your Emotions Today.......Thread !!!!!!!

I recently discussed with another member here on the boards my own long familiarity with depression. I know I don't come off as someone afflicted with it but that's because I have training and experience in both dealing with it in my personal life, and helping others deal with it in theirs. There's a difference between suffering from depression and living with it, and when it comes right down to it, it's all about choice. You CHOOSE whether or not you allow depression to affect you. Me, I choose not to. It's an effort at times, sure, but when all is said and done, I'd simply rather be smiling than miserable. You have to work at it. And yeah, it's tough at times. But then if it was easy, they wouldn't call it work.

I'm a little nervous, I start my brand new full time job in all of 7 hours (haven't gone to bed yet). I know I'll do fine as I work with my wife and it's a very lax environment, but first day jitters, you know? I'm f'n pumped to make a full time salary versus these random joe jobs I've been stuck with for the past 3 years. Karma is finally turning in my favor after dealing with so much shit.

Re: How Are Your Emotions Today.......Thread !!!!!!!

^^^Very glad for you man. My best wishes to you.

It's pay day so I'm really happy. About to go grab DVDs, magazines but also a VHS/DVD combo thing cause my VHS died and I NEED one. Got so much great stuff in that format. Might grab some Jack Daniels or wine. Not sure what yet.

Well tomorrow is my Mothers wedding and I'm excited and a little nervous. I'll be having a step dad and even though he's not my real dad I've accepted him as a father figure. It should be fun though, I expect to get hammered and pig out on the buffet.

Re: How Are Your Emotions Today.......Thread !!!!!!!

^^^Very cool. Good thinking my man. Better to accept it than anything else. Oh, and enjoy, drink some for me will you???

Marc-ander fucker just called and he's coming here to drink the gift I gave him, a very tasty Crianza Red Bloody Wine called Ibéricos 14%. Should be fun because I'm already drunk, got a 1,18ltrs of 10% beer down so I bet with half of that bottle I'll definitely be wasted. Hahahaha
